    Default Sunshine Lattice Quilt

    I知 working on the Sunshine Lattice Quilt from Missouri Quilt Company. There痴 a tutorial on YouTube. I知 not experienced in quilting quilt tops and was wondering what you may think would be a good pattern for this quilt. Of course, straight lines would be the easiest, but I can do slight curves with a walking foot. Not experienced in free motion quilting. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    I have used my walking foot for curves. not small ones but easy curves are fine. You could just do curves down the quilt and then again across if you want those. Nice quilt pattern

    Thank you, Nativetexan. I thought about curves in one direction only, but not across and down. That sounds pretty.

    One more question. What color thread would I use to do the quilting. I was thinking white but not sure.

    I would use cream or a very soft yellow. Lovely quilt.

    I agree - white, due to the background of the blues. Love that color combination!

    It's a beautiful top! I did my first curves using a walking foot not too long ago. Much easier than I expected, and I was so pleased with the results.

    Thank you all for the compliments and suggestions for colors. With experts like you, whichever color I eventually use will look good. Think I’ll audition them all.
